About

“ Our goal is to innovate tradition. We’ve taken the history of mastiha and have transformed it into a unique white spirit, giving the world a taste of Greece. We don’t want to change your go-to cocktail, we want to make it better with Axia.”

AXIA CEO

Sustaining Ancient Traditions

For generations, the families who have lived and farmed on the local hills of Chios harvest the treasured Mastic tree twice a year. The bark is sliced and the sap is milked and left to dry in the wind to form crystal ‘tear drops’. The previous crystals are then collected, cleaned by hand and shipped to the Plomari distillery.

Legendary Taste, Distilled with Passion

At the distillery, the crystals are lovingly blended with alcohol and twice distilled in a process that fuses traditional hand-crafted copper stills with master distiller Maroussa Tschaki’s cutting-edge science. The result is a premium, extra dry and unsweetened white spirit with only 0.5% sugar and a considerably low caloric count. We call it Axia.

Twist the Rules

Modern Crafted Classic Cocktails

Discover Axia

A historic treasure, twice distilled from angel’s tears and unexpectedly twisted. This is Axia; clear liquid, dark soul, mischievous nature.

I.

With less than 30% calories than vodka, Axia is a white spirit that mirrors the crystal-like of its provenance-but with a dark heart.

II.

An homage to the age-old snakebite antivenom, the beautifully deviant snake coils around our bottles to release the twisted spirits of the drinker.

III.

The taste of Axia spials around your tongue with light and dark, dry and sweet, new and old. Experience the unique masitha aroma blended with notes of rose, cypress, citrus and bergamot.

IV.

In Greek, Axia means ‘value’ or ‘worth’, a name that nods to the coloured past of this coveted battle-inducing elixir.
